The statement was stating an absolute. Algorithmic complaxity matters more than the speed of the computing hardware. Obviously, more power means you can compute more, but not everything.
- slededit 9y agoThat's a very uncharitable reading of what I wrote. The topic of the conversation was GPU performance vs CPU performance. Despite being less flexible, the sheer quantity of execution units more than makes up for it. But no, I suppose its more likely I was really saying GPUs aren't bounded by the limits of the universe.
